Trace complete.
Idem when tracing to node30
No GBLX for me, just tons of hops
@ mitgib : do you still use rotary telephones too?
If his rotary still works and he's fine with using it, why not?
You still have an analogue network and even pulse dialing technology? How old is your public telephone network?
You do know that there are rotary phones that work on tone, right? Such as antique replicas, etc?
I thought you were talking about an old telephone. But besides that, don't these phones still need an analogue network?
The ones I'm referring to (googling hard to try and find you an example; I know I saw one on thinkgeek or some similar site awhile back) are nothing more than a standard tone-dial phone with some fancy mechanism for the rotary dial. Fully up to date and compliant... there was even a 'wireless' one.
Ah ok, so I guess it's still analogue and therefore I may not be able to use it. We have ISDN here.
Who uses ISDN outside Germany*? ADSL over ISDN isn't very popular.
*Germany has 20% ISDN world users.
The whole northern Europe uses ISDN. Southern Europe is still using analogue technology.
Who uses landline telephones anyway?
I guess people who want to have a reliable way of communication. I seriously can't think of any person I know that doesn't have a landline telephone connection. Especially when it comes to businesses.
@lylix
I dont have a landline in either Business Premises neither at my private home. i use a cable connection and Cisco VOIP.
Ok I was used to the term "landline" as opposed to "mobile cellular ´´line´´". A "cable connection" is landline in this term. So I would consider that as landline.
FFFFFFFFFFF.... all those marks, I thought I was reading some really crappy perl again for a moment...
Haha, yeah. You found my roots!
No, I sure don't, I've been using VoIP since the late 90's actually, and if you visit the parent site http://dpvoice.com we have some sweet deals on SIP trunks and can deliver from locations across the US and India.
I do remember having rotary phones at home until the mid 70's,maybe even the early 80's. But we also had black & white television until 1972.
As an update I replaced powerdns with a BIND setup. BIND is holding at 8% CPU and only ~50M RAM so the changes are huge.
Performance seems at least as fast in the tests I've done.
Francisco
Heh, there's a reason BIND is considered a gold standard. It may have been around a long time, but the folks at ISC are not clueless (vix has been doing this a long time), and the code has been in continual development for over 20 years. A majority of the roots still run BIND.
Sometimes long-maintained software can be good software. *BSD is still around, after all.
unbound is pretty good if you want a low ressources dns resolver fran...
BIND is running like a champ so I don't want to dick with what works
I'll keep it in mind though.
Francisco
But but but.. You could be missing out on a 0.00003% performance improvement.
It would be more but well... sure that bind is not that bad
I'm quite happy with djbdns.
Ok, I did some pings to my buyvm boxes, and are the same. Two of them appear to be passing via some gblx...* hosts and one goes via other hosts, but some of them says gblx too o_O. At the end my pings are the same
@miTgiB
Do you realy need to follow Dick with But?
Hope you've been well mate? How was you week?
This is really amazing. I wasn't even sure if I was ALLOWED to complain about this when I was only paying $15 a year. The fact that the staff actually goes out of the way to fix such a small problem really puts a smile on my face. BuyVM for life!
